When I was younger, like 5 year old, I used to have an obsession with cheesecake. I used to get so excited around the holidays because we would get to eat cheesecake at my grandparents house. I would get so excited I would start to stutter. Now I am older, the stutter is gone, but the cheesecake obsession still lives on. This dip really satisfies the hankering without all of the work that goes into making a cheese cake. Plus, who does love Andes Candies. If you like cheesecake at all, try this dip, you won’t be disappointed.

What you will need for the Peppermint Cheesecake Dip

Ingredients

8oz Softened Cream Cheese
7oz Marshmallow Fluff

I have linked most of the items above to amazon. I will say you can get EVERYTHING cheaper from the grocery store, so I would recommend just going to the store rather than buy it off amazon. But if for some reason you cannot get to the store, it is linked above. I will also say that chocolate graham crackers are hard to find right now. I went with chocolate wafers instead and they were delicious.

How to Make the Peppermint Cheesecake Dip

Using a spatula, fold in the peppermint baking chips.

Recipe Tips and Tricks

Make sure your cream cheese is room temperature. If your cream cheese is cold, it will be lumpy. You want a nice smooth consistency.
Chill the dip after making it. This is not necessary, but I like the dip slightly chilled. Place it in the fridge for about 30 minutes prior to serving for best result.
You can keep the dip in an air tight container in the fridge for up to a week.
If you can’t find Andes Baking chips, you can use any other peppermint flavored chocolate chopped up into fine pieces. If you still have not luck with that, you can chop up white chocolate and candy cakes and use that instead.
